Too Dark

I want to rant about something today about my outfit in this post. I wore this outfit when I went to Gurney and Paragon. Let me tell you something I've noticed, the people in Penang, not parents or grandparents, but youngsters my age, really do not know how to respect people's choice. Everywhere I went, youngsters were giving me rude looks that made me very annoyed. First of all, I wanna emphasize that everyone judges, its in our nature to judge a person unwillingly. However its a whole different thing when you're staring at me and judging me up and down so obviously. I want to clarify that I know not all Penangaites are like this but to experience so many doing this in one day is just terrible. This only ever happens when I dress differently in comparison to my casual shorts look.

If you think how I dress is inappropriate/weird for you, it doesn't mean you have to stare at me until I walk a distance till you can't see me anymore. It's rude. If you're gonna judge me like that, look, then turn away. Don't stare at me like I'm a monster. I'm not your typical girl. I have my own style and my own personality. It wasn't like I was screaming at the top of my lungs. I didn't judge you like that so dont do the same to me. To anyone for a matter of fact. I get this so often and it's getting on my nerves.

Giving the benefit of the doubt, maybe some thought my look was interesting. Still, you really shouldn't be staring like that. I always thought it was in the female nature to judge a person silently but oh my god I was so wrong. I thank you if you find my look interesting though.

You wanna know whats the worst part? I walked passed Victoria's Secret and at the beginning one lady saw me. Then she turned around for a second and every single employee at the entrance of Victoria's Secret just stopped what they were doing and started staring at me until the couldn't see me anymore. GET BACK TO WORK IDIOT. It was so so so rude! I really couldn't take it. This happened to me once when I walked into Warehouse and all the employees stared at me, head to toe. Didn't your parents teach you not to stare? I just couldn't believe that youngsters my age are giving me looks instead of parents. I mean, you would think people in this generation are more open minded and know not to stare like that right? Sigh. I love Penang and all but this kinda attitude from the people my age upsets me. I don't see this happening much in KL. I'm sorry if I offended any of you in any way, I just really wanted to let this out.

*Excuse me coz I've gained a kilo or two from the stress of finishing final assignments. I've handed in all my assignments and now relieved. I'm going to Macau for a holiday so do stay tuned for that. Till here, I hope you're all well. Nx

Oh gosh, finally someone said it!I can really relate to this and whenever people stares at me it makes me really uncomfortable and just want to walk out of the store. I mean, I totally get it that you dress differently, but I don't think people should staaaaaaare at you and throwing looks at you. It's very rude and it drags down your confidence.Don't care what others think, you look super super hot in this outfit. they're probably jealous, trust me :)

Honestly, it's not like you're not wearing any clothes at all -,- you got wear shirt, pants and shoes just like they do only with style only what. Just ignore them lah. If actress wear like that sure no comment one. Anyway, next time if they stare again, just say yeah la i know i'm pretty but you can't take my photo :p

Ahhh preach it sista. I know what you mean. When I visit Singapore or any other Asian country, it sort of influences the way I dress. Thing is though, I admire your boldness. It can get annoying when people stare (especially if they do so rudely, as you've mentioned) and to be honest, I think they're just not used to that sort of bravery appearance-wise. I know for a fact that if I saw you in the same setting, I'd be looking on in admiration and silently praising you. :)Chin up, girl. You have nothing to be worried about, let them look for all you care. x

Damn gurl you have no idea how much I like your style and your body! Honestly, I can totally relate to you. I get at least 5 people staring at my outfit every time when I'm dressed up, like what is wrong with these people? But like they say, they stare at you bc you're different, and in fact all of them look the same! Why are the people doing this tbh it's so rude and uneducated wth. And the most important thing is, please don't let any of is change your style and confidence. You know we're always here supporting you! <33

For the record, i think you look awesome. Fashion isn't about being mainstream and dressing like how everyone is supposed to dress. Fashion isn't about standardising a look. Fashion is about expressing yourself through your style. Maybe you're feeling gloomy that day and you'll dress head to toe in black and some badass boots. or maybe you're feeling really sweet that day and you'll go for a cute skater skirt. So what? Don't care about what others think even though it's annoying. I honestly believe that they're just jealous because they don't have the guts to pull off a look like that. That's why they stare. Cuz as you walk past rocking that badass outfit, they're stuck in that little outfit that society deems "acceptable". yes it may be unusual but if that's how you choose to express yourself, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. So chill out girl, i think you're awesome. :)

I think I will stare at you if I saw you :/ cuz I really like your style! And I think all the people that stared at you were amazed by your style too :P Everyone likes to see beautiful things more what :P
